As a pivotal point of connection between the historic square, the San Gabriel River, and nearby trails, El Monumento enhances Georgetown’s identity as a vibrant and welcoming community.
Every seat should feel like you got a 100% seat.

You feel like you are entering into somebody’s residence. It is really about decompressing and forgetting you are in an urban place at all. You are in the middle of Georgetown, but it’s an oasis in the middle of the city.
